Everyone's favorite subject...URL rewriting [Solved]

[eluser]xwero[/eluser]
CodeIgniter isn't loaded when the pre_system hook is triggered. The benefit of using a pre_system hook is that you can use the config_item function already for the redirection so your if can look like this

Code:

if (isset($_GET['view']))
{
  $redirect = 'Location: '.config_item('base_url').'page/id/'.$_GET['view'];
  header($redirect);
}

if you need this for multiple sites you can abstract it even more and add site specific params to the function call in the config/hooks.php file.

If you got a mess of urls then the nice function you wrote to make it easier to convert sites to CI can be too limiting and you have to do it in the index.php file.
